Flies toil not, neither, do they.spin, yet they have the first taste of all the beßt gravies in the land. The cuckoo is the greatest economist among the birds ; she lays her eggs in other birds' riesti, and lets the birds hatch them out at their leisure, Rats have fewer friends and more enemies than . anYthing of the four-legged. persuasicnon the face of the earth, and yet rats are as plenty now as in the pahniest days of the Roman Em pire. The serpent and the crab change their cloth ing each year, and the raccoon lives all the winter long on the memory of what he ate, in the summer. The horse always gets up from the ground on his fcrelegs first, and the cow on her hind ones, and the dog turns around three Aimee be tore he lies down. The elephant has the least, and the rabbit the most, eyes for: his size, and a rat's tail is just the size of its body. • The root the thoroughbred dog's mouth . is always black. So is the 'bottom of the cat's foot whols a good mouser.. The spider is the only creature , that catches its food in a trap, and a sheep, will Ave without water longer than any domestic aniMal. , The fox is the hardest to catch izt a trap, and a musk-rat the easiest, and >the theadoir lark is the shyest of all the birds of the air. The crow flies six miles, and the wild-pigeon lusty an hour, but the htunming bird, eats all things on the wing. The horse will eat ten hours out =of every twelve ; the ox lies down and chews his cud half the time ;'and ,the hog never knowa what it is to be hungry. . . , The wild turkey can run faster thad he can fly, and any man who is a good walker can tire a deer out in twenty-four hours. TOO GOOD A CHANCE, TO LOSE. The Detroit Free PcCess tells this story : When a grocer's boy yesterday delivered a basket . full of packages to .a lady on Columbia street her quick eye detected the fact, that she sad receivtd only eleven oranges in place of a dozen. "Young man you ate that other:orange as you came along V‘it she exclaimed as she re-. counted the number. "Never—never !" he earnestly replied. "Well, where * is it then ?" "Perhaps they counted them wrong, ma'am." "Well, I'll go right buck witifyOu Ind see." "I didn't eat that orange,'" te began, after a_ little reflection, "but I'll tell.you how it was.-- Down here, about two blocks.
